Jeremiah 31:1-3

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

The Joyful Return of the Exiles

31 At that time, says the Lord, I will be the God of all the families of Israel, and they shall be my people.

²Thus says the Lord:
The people who survived the sword
    found grace in the wilderness;
when Israel sought for rest,
³    the Lord appeared to him^[a] from far away.^[b]
I have loved you with an everlasting love;
    therefore I have continued my faithfulness to you.
